Chapter 93
"The patient is already in poor health, and she has suffered a serious injury, leading to a temporary coma. We must treat her immediately."
The patient is already in poor health!
Suffered a serious injury!
No one knew how long it had been, but Karen could only repeat what she heard the doctor had said before he entered the emergency room.
Thinking of the bruises on her mother's body, and the painful and regretful eyes of her mother when she looked at her, Karen's heart ached so much that she almost stopped breathing.
In this life, her mother was weak and had no opinion, but the love given by her mother since she was little was no less than any mother.
Karen still remembered that when she was a child, she was very naughty and often injured her own knee. Her mother often helped her clean her wounds, and at the same time, she would be crying.
Her mother was such a cry baby, a woman who used tears to solve problems.
She was such a weak mother who loved crying and rarely spoke loudly to her husband. But she repeatedly argued with her husband for Karen.
The thing that Karen remembered the most was that she promised to get engaged to Charlie because it was the first time that her mother quarreled with her father.
Karen had always loved her mother, but when that happened, when her mother said "Just let your sister go this time", Karen felt that she couldn't forgive her.
If someone else betrayed or hurt her, for her, it would be just someone else. She could fight back in the same way, or even do more.
However, her mother was her closest relative. She was raised by her mother. She was her blood. How could her mother say that?
Karen held her face and took a deep breath. "Why did my mother come to Chatterton Town this time?"
Would it be like what Kristine said? Under orders from Karen's father to persuade Karen to go back to Beaford City and help Kristine and Charlie to give birth for them as a surrogate mother?
If that was the case, her mother would not have cried so sadly, nor would she have fainted on the roadside in the end.
Karen continued to think, "Did I misunderstand my mother? Maybe she didn't come here to persuade me to go back to Beaford City?"
When Karen was lost in her thoughts, the phone suddenly rang. it startled her.
When she saw the words "Mr. Kyle" on the phone screen, she didn't dare to answer it for a long time. She was so worried that she would cry if she heard Kevin's voice.
Staring at the phone number on the screen for a while, Karen took a deep breath, tried to calm down, and then slid her fingers through the screen to answer it. She tried to speak to him in a relaxed tone, "Mr. Kyle, what's the matter?"
Must he call only if there is something?
She couldn't see Kevin frowning slightly at the other end of the phone, but he said calmly, seemingly unbothered by Karen's words, "It's noon. Don't forget to have lunch."
"Okay." Although Kevin could not see her at all, Karen still tried to smile.
Karen didn't try to find something to talk about, and Kevin didn't know what to say. Both of them were on the phone but they were silent.
"Miss Karen, the patient's condition is not very optimistic. Although she has wakened up at the moment, based on her physical condition she might go into a coma at any time." The light in the emergency room went out, and a doctor came out and explained to Karen.
Hearing the doctor's words, Karen was anxious and forgot that she was still on a call with Kevin.
She grabbed the doctor and hurriedly asked, "Doctor, what do you mean she might go into a coma at any time? How is my mother's condition?"
The doctor took her aside and said with a sigh, "Miss Karen, don't be agitated. Your mother's physical condition is very serious. You should know that. In the condition of poor health, who could stand the blows being beaten?"
Poor health? Being beaten?
So this time mother went against the man's will and was unwilling to come to Chatterton Town to persuade her to go back. That's why that man beat her up again? Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
"Karen, which hospital are you in?" On the phone, Kevin had already heard the situation from the conversation between the doctor and Karen.
"I..." The words that were about to be blurted out stopped abruptly at the last moment and Karen bit her lips shut.
In fact, she wanted to tell Kevin what had happened. At this time, she needed him to give her a little bit of strength, but she didn't want to disturb Kevin's work, and she didn't want Kevin to see how
terrible her family was.
"Karen, tell me, which hospital are you in?" Kevin's repeated his question calmly.
Karen took another deep breath and said, "I'm at the People's Hospital of Chatterton Town."
"Karen, with the doctor there, mother-in-law will be fine. Don't be afraid." Kevin comforted her softly.
"Yes." Karen nodded vigorously.
"I'm going to hang up now." Kevin hung up the phone, then he said, "Assistant Gray, arrange for a flight to Chatterton Town as soon as possible."
"President Kyle, you want to go back to Chatterton Town?" Suddenly, Amelia was startled when she heard Kevin saying that he wanted to go back to Chatterton Town. "President Kyle, you can't, the meeting in the afternoon will start soon. This meeting is related to the development of Rovio Corporation Inc in the west. If you leave now..."
Kevin completely ignored what Amelia said and continued to ask, "And contact the people at the People's Hospital of Chatterton Town. Ask them to arrange the best doctors to take charge of Karen's mother and send her medical records to me before I board."
Amelia added, "President Kyle, the meeting is about to begin. The top leaders of several western districts are here..."
"Don't you understand what I said?" Kevin stopped and looked at Amelia coldly. His tone was neither heavy nor light, but it was absolutely powerful.
"..." Amelia opened her mouth and did not dare to persuade him anymore. She glanced at Nick who was at the other side of Kevin.
Nick saw Amelia's gaze and quickly followed up with Kevin's pace. He persuaded, "Director Kyle, in order to move to the west, Rovio Corporation Inc has spent three years preparing for this. This is the most important meeting. If you leave, the money and manpower we have spent for 3 years for Rovio Corporation Inc will be of nothing."
However, Kevin did not care. He raised his watch and checked the time. "How long will it take to get to the airport?"
Amelia said, "It will take at least half an hour."
"Book a ticket to Chatterton Town for forty minutes later." After ordering Amelia, Kevin looked at Nick again. "Let Morris Scott take charge of this afternoon's meeting. You stay back and help him."
"Director Kyle..." Nick still wanted to persuade him, but he didn't say anything when he saw Kevin's eyes.
Their boss had officially taken over Rovio Corporation Inc. For six years, he had not made any ruthless decisions, nor had he acted so carefree.
Today, he said that he wanted to leave before an important meeting. What on earth could have him make such an outrageous decision?
